I have been speaking with Dr. Blackmon (who has been alot of help) and the dies that I need for my press are not the size that he makes. I am looking for a source of dies that have an 18 thread pitch. Does anyone have any ideas short of custom Corbin dies? Or should I start looking at another press? Any press recommendations on the press?

What caliber bullet you making? I would imagine a press may be cheeper then custom dies but it all depends on again what bullet you are making. What press has an 18 thread pitch?

Good luck

It may be easier to modify the press or make an adapter or threaded insert...

I was looking to start with 22 but I am thinking that a new press may be in order.
